HOLDER FOR DISINFECTAN'IS, DEODOR-ANTS, AND THE LIKE Application filedJanuary 12, 1927. Serial No. 160,536.

This invention relates to holders for disinfectants, deodorants and thelike. These holders usually are perforated in order to permit the fumesfrom the disinfecting or deodorizing material to escape into theatmosphere. The disinfecting or deodorizing material usually containsoil which gradually runs out and collects in the bottom of the holder,and will, after enough has collected, run out of the perforations, thusdripping onto the floor or Wall and causing the di colorization thereof.

An object of this invention is a holder equipped with a removablereceptacle to catch the oil as it drips out, whereby the abovenotedobjectionable feature of the previous holders is overcome.

According to this invention, a drip hole is provided in the bottom ofthe holder and there is supported directly beneath the hole a slidabledrawer. As the oil runs out of the deodorant or disinfectant, it dripsthrough the hole into the drawer which, when it becomes full, may betaken out and the oil thrown into any suitable drain pipe.

Other objects, novel features and advantages of this invention will beapparent from the following specification and accompanying drawingswherein Figure 1 is a perspective view of a disinfectant holderembodying the invention;

Fig. 2 is a section on the line 2-2 of Fig. 1;

Fig. 3 is a section on the line 33 of Fig. 2; and

Fig. 4: is asection on the line l of Fig. 3.

The device comprises a plate which may be attached to a wall or othersupport in any suitable manner and a container or cage 11, the sidewalls of which are perforated as at 12. The cage 11, which may be of anysuitable shape, is supported from the plate 10 in any suitable mannersuch that a disinfectant may be easily placed therein. In this instance,cage 11 is shown as being hinged as 2' at 13 to the plate 10, althoughit might equally well be slidably connected thereto. The bottom of thecontainer slopes downwardly to ward its center where there is provided ahole 14:.

Below the container 11 is supported from the plate 10 a boX 15 having anopen top and the cross section of which conforms to that of thecontainer 11. Within the box 15 and directly below the hole 14 issupported a drawer 16 having a knob 17.

When used, this device is supported upon a wall or other structure byattaching the plate 10 thereto and the cage 11 is swung open as shown indotted lines in Fig. 4. A suitable disinfectant or deodorant is placedtherein and the container closed against the plate 10.

' The fumes from the deodorant or disinfectant escape to the atmospherethrough the perforations 12. Any oil escaping from the disinfectant ordeodorant drips through the hole 14 into the box 16 which may be emptied whenever it becomes full. WVith this clevice, the oil from thedisinfectant or deodorant is prevented from dropping onto the floor orthe wall of the room in which the device is mounted, thereby preventingsoiling or discoloring the floor or walls.

I claim 1. A device of the character described comprising a holder fordisinfectant and the like, said holder having provision for free escapeof fumes therefrom and having an aperture in the bottom thereof and aremovable receptacle arranged below said aperture to collect liquiddripping from said holder through said aperture.

2. A device of the character described comprising a holder fordisinfectant and the like, said holder having of fumes therefrom andhaving an aperture in the bottom thereof and a slidable receptaclearranged below said aperture .to collect liquid dripping from saidholder through said aperture.

3.
